2026-2027 Theme: The Lord, The Lord: compassionate, gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.
We will spend the year focusing on the verse Exodus 34:6. The second quarter we are focusing on The Lord is Gracious.
What does gracious mean?
Gracious means showing kindness, love, and forgiveness to others, even when they make mistakes or haven't earned it.
God shows us grace by loving us, forgiving us, and giving us opportunities to grow even when we fall short.
Because God shows us grace, we should show grace to others!
What does showing grace look like?
Forgive others instead of getting even.
Be kind even when someone is unkind to you.
Give second chances when someone makes a mistake.
Be patient when someone frustrates you.
Include others who are left out.
Encourage others instead of making fun of them.
Help others without expecting anything in return.
Speak kindly even when you disagree.
Remember!
Grace is giving kindness and forgiveness, even when they aren't earned.
